A 7.2-magnitude earthquake struck south of the U.S.-Mexico border Sunday and caused high-rise buildings in downtown Los Angeles and San Diego to sway. There were no immediate reports of major damage in the affected areas. The quake happened at 3:40 p.m. PT in the Mexican state of Baja California, about 60 kilometres southeast of Mexicali, the state's capital city, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The area has been hit by 3.0-magnitude quakes all week. There were no immediate reports of injuries or major damage in Baja California, but the assessment is ongoing, said Alfredo Escobedo, the state's civil protection director. The tremor's epicentre was 10 kilometres below ground, Mexico's National Seismological Service reported. Strong shaking was reported in the Coachella Valley and Riverside, Calif. The earthquake rattled buildings on the west side of Los Angeles and in the San Fernando Valley, interrupting Easter dinners. In Los Angeles, the city fire department went on "earthquake status," and some stalled elevators were reported. No damage was reported in Los Angeles or San Diego. An earthquake also struck Northern California on Sunday afternoon. The U.S. Geological Survey said a quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.0 was recorded at 3:49 p.m. PT about 40 kilometres north of Santa Rosa. A dispatcher with the Sonoma County Sheriff's Department said the agency had not received any emergency calls after the quake.Read more: http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/04/04/mexico-quake.html#ixzz0kBRCM9TI
